WHAT IT DOES

What admin_list_app_passwords does on WordPress MCP Server

AI agents call admin_list_app_passwords to retrieve information from WordPress MCP Server without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

RISK

Why admin_list_app_passwords is rated Low

The tool retrieves and displays existing application passwords for a user. While it is a read operation without side effects, the severity is elevated to medium because application passwords are security credentials, and their exposure could enable unauthorized access to WordPress APIs if an attacker gains control of the listing output.

From the tool's definition Tool name contains 'list' and description states 'Listet alle Application Passwords' (lists all application passwords). This is a retrieval operation with no modification or deletion of data.
